PARIS — A man was arrested in Paris on Thursday (Aug 17) after jumping off the Eiffel Tower with a parachute, police and the monument's operator said.
The man, an experienced climber, entered the tower's perimeter shortly after 5am local time , well before its official opening.
He was quickly detected by guards, according to the site's operator Sete, but still managed to get to the top before anybody could stop him, carrying the parachute in a backpack.The man landed in a nearby stadium where he was arrested for endangering the lives of others, police said. "This kind of irresponsible action puts people working at or below the tower in danger," Sete said in a statement.The tower's opening, usually at 9am, was slightly delayed due to the incident, Sete said, adding that it had filed criminal charges against the man.And on Monday, two inebriated American tourists were found sleeping off a heavy night in the heights of the tower, having dodged security the night before.
